 Multiple IRIs may have the same appearance. Characters in different scripts may look similar (a Cyrillic "ะพ" may appear similar to a Latin "o"). A character followed by combining characters may have the same visual representation as another character (LATIN SMALL LETTER E followed by COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT has the same visual representation as LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE). Any person or application that is writing or interpreting data in PROV-N must take care to use the IRI that matches the intended semantics, and avoid IRIs that make look similar. Further information about matching of similar characters can be found in Unicode Security Considerations [UNISEC] and Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) [RFC3987] Section 8.
 
+PROV-N offers an extensibility mechanism, which in turn may introduce additional security considerations. For example, predicates in extensibility expressions use qualified names, mappable to IRIs, and appropriate security considerations for IRIs apply too.

 Interoperability considerations:
 There are no known interoperability issues.
